Description

We often discourage ourselves by comparing our achievements against others to those we have no business comparing against. Set your own goals and measure against those, not others.   13:15 Farmer Jodi Roebuck @roebuckfarm discusses their steps to perfect growing beets on their farm. They now grow all beets using the paperpot transplanter, which gives them a higher success rate while reducing labor.    Kwik Hoops are eligible for NRCS low-tunnel grants. Protect your valuable crop from rain, wind, cold, and insects using Kwik Hoops and InsectaNet.   Learn more about Jodi: https://www.roebuckfarm.com/ @roebuckfarm
